Tintern

Tintern (Welsh: Tyndyrn) is a village on the west bank of the River Wye in Monmouthshire, Wales, about 5 miles north of Chepstow. It has been popular with tourists since the late 18th Century, who visit for the natural scenery and the ruined Tintern Abbey.

The settlement of Tintern has been formed through the coalescence of two historic villages, previously separate parishes - Tintern Parva, forming the northern end of the village and Chapel Hill which forms the southern end.
